They are not Social Psychology but they are a variety of texts which are classics and should be of great reference to a new psychology department. Thank you for letting us know of this need. Dr. Joann Jelly Barstow College (Emeritus) ________________________________ From: Thomas, David [david.tho...@okstate.edu] Sent: Monday, March 10, 2014 6:47 AM To: Teaching in the Psychological Sciences (TIPS) Subject: [tips] Textbooks for Ethiopia Tipsters Last month I sent out the request below for psychology textbooks (1999 or later) to donate to the psychology program at Hawassa University in Ethiopia. So far we have received over 100 books but are still looking for more! It only costs a few dollars to send one of those free books you received from the publisher. We’ll even put a sticker in it that identifies you as the donor. We are collecting books until March 31. Please distribute this email to your colleagues. Thanks for your help! david thomas David G.

Send them to Hawassa University in Ethiopia! Ethiopia is a nation everyone has heard of but few know anything about. As it develops, it is seeing an understandable rise in social problems like drug addiction, crime, and homelessness. Rather than relying on outsiders to solve these problems for them, Hawassa University in southern Ethiopia is starting a new master’s degree program in social psychology, one of only four in the entire nation. Unfortunately, this new educational program is in desperate need of one commodity that we in the American educational system take completely for granted – textbooks. In collaboration with Colorado State University, the Psychology Department and the School of International Studies at Oklahoma State University are organizing a textbook drive for the psychology program at Hawassa University. We are specifically looking for copies of 7 social psychology textbooks that are listed at the end of this e-mail, but the program would benefit from any psychology titles, especially those related to social, community, counseling, health concerns, or research methods. This is your chance to pass along a copy of any book that you feel may be influential or impactful, with the knowledge that it will be cherished by a fledgling program and referenced by students for years to come. We request that donated books be in reasonable condition and have a publication of 1999 or later. Here’s how you can help: 1. Books on hand can be shipped via USPS Media Mail to us here at OSU, often for less than $5.00 in postage. 2. You can purchase a copy of one of the titles below, or a book that is meaningful to you, and have it shipped directly to us at OSU. This gives you an opportunity to contribute without having to leave your office, and older editions can often be purchased for pennies on the dollar. Books can be purchase anywhere, but sites such as http://bookfinder.com and aggregate textbook listings and can help you find the cheapest prices. 3. If you have a sizable donation within 100 miles of Stillwater, we would be glad to schedule a pickup. Books can be sent to: Attn: Dr. David Thomas 116 North Murray Hall Stillwater, OK 74078 david.tho...@okstate.edu<mailto:david.tho...@okstate.edu> Books will be collected through March 31st. Please feel free to pass this message along to anyone who would be willing to help our cause. As a thank you for contributing, a sticker will be placed inside the cover of each book with our logo and the name of the donor or person attributed with the donation.
